>I used in the past the seroquel as a sleep aid but I try it again 4 months ago and almost had a heart attack with it...seriously my heart rate was too high on it, I assume it's because of it's effect on the A1 receptor...

Oh Vincent, that is just awful.

I don't know anything about the pharmacology of trimipramine. I recall someone saying that it was a little like an AP. It doesn't feel to me as if it could cause anxiety or tachycardia but you are very sensitive.

This is what I do. At least 2 hours before I want to go to sleep (for me this is 6pm) I take around 12.5mg trimipramiine or a little less. This way I have only a little hangover the next day. My guts are a bit sluggish, but that is about it.

It is better for me than doxepin, which did not deepen sleep in the same way. Neither did amitrip. Mirtazepine did but lasted all the next day. Same with cyproheptadine.

I take it with maybe 2mg prazosin split into two doses.

This is physically calming.
